Episode description

This week we bring BUTT FEST 2000 over to the MDC feed where Alexander, Tony, and Bryan Quinby dive into the potential genre of Bowling Rock.

Bowling Rock: what is it, who is it, and why is it?

We trace the origins of the 1950's-and-60's-influenced genre (think board shorts, bowling shirts, Hawaiian culture, semi-ironic Americana, maybe even a little Elvis) in surf rock, ska, and swing, and we analyze the pop-punk, irony, and SoCal bro vibe it brought to millions nationwide.
